If you happened to pass by the Museum building last night and wondered what all the activity was about, it was our Educators' Reception, where teachers from throughout the Valley were given a special sneak preview of the Met's new "Met on the Move" outreach vehicle. The event also featured the awards presentations for the Met's Innovative Science Education Mini-Grants.
Winners of the grants were

Dr. Laurie Goodman
Principal, Rafer Johnson Junior High School, Kingsburg

The activity is starting...we're building to the grandest reopening celebration Fresno has ever seen!
Reopening Celebration Sneak Preview!
Among the many exciting activities, performances and events taking place during the Met's Grand Reopening Weekend Celebration is one that is sure to be the most frighteningly fun experience you've ever had at the Met! The Creaturama Film Festival will send a chill down your spine through the dark night hours of late Saturday, November 15 through the early morning of Sunday, November 16.
Creaturama features four classic "creature features" from the silent era to the 1960's that explore both the art of filmmaking as well as the advances that have been made in special effects, sound and movie production.
Mark your calendars to join us for all the chills and thrills! If you'd like to join us as a volunteer during the Grand Reopening Weekend Celebration, please call the Met at 441-1444.
